Do not be fooled by the low ratings from years ago. Obviously there is a new ownership. Well maintained, clean, freshly painted rooms. Has all amenities (including fridge, microwave, hair drier, iron, ironing table, clean new towels, renovated bathrooms, usb chargers at the wall, good tv channels etc.). Very friendly staff. Location is generally good, but is between 2 freeways, so if someone is very light sleeper it may be a problem. However, the windows are apparently insulated so the noise was minimal and did not bother us. Good value for everything you need. Strongly recommended.

The bad part is, they don’t submit the credit of $100.00 that they should put back to my credit card, still waiting since 7/12/24, my invoice shows the charge $100 dollars less. Thanks.

Very nice, spacious & clean room. The coffee in the morning was great, too. The price for the room is very fair, what the essential reason for this boooking was.

Location is excellent for the beach and restaurants. Staff were exceptionally friendly, particularly Brian, who checked us in. Beds very comfortable and even though the room overlooked the highway, noice was minimal. Breakfast was very good(particularly the omelette) with a good selection.
